THAT FAMOUS PRESTON NIGHT RODEO!
Thursday, Friday & Saturday Nights
Pre-events start at 8:15 p.m. and the Rodeo starts at 8:30 p.m. See Rodeo Events.
We are so happy to have you to participate in the rodeo parade. Here are just a few items:
1. There is a $20/night per entry. 2. Keep space 30 feet—no more. 3. The nature of the business and the parade entry should be family oriented. We reserve the right to deny participation for any inappropriate entry. Entries without theme, purpose or decoration are discouraged. 4. We cannot block driveways during line up 5. THINK SAFE....If your entry has anything to throw make sure all of the candy is thrown way beyond the orange lines and over the kids’ heads. If pulling a trailer, an adult needs to walk alongside/behind the rear axle on both sides of trailer and be in communication with the driver with walkie talkies (phones are too slow). 6. NO WATER. A lot of phones are not water resistant and people won’t want to sit through the rodeo with wet clothes, 7. Horse riders/wagons must have a saddle and proper footwear and must be experienced. Animals need to be able to handle the lights, noises, sights and unpredictable nature that can and will be present during the staging of the parade, the parade itself, and the post parade atmosphere. We do not want any injury to either spectators or participants. 8. There are risks and hazards with participating in That Famous Preston Night Rodeo Parade. By participating in this parade, you assume all risks and liabilities for your own participation and those that participate in your entry party |
